A recent leak claimed that the "Final Battle Arc" of the anime adaptation of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" will be adapted into three films. Recall that this arc includes the "Infinite Fortress Arc" and the "Dawn Countdown Arc", which consists of a total of 69 chapters of the original manga.

However, it is also important to remember that this information comes from a leak and is not officially confirmed, so we will have to wait for the end of the broadcast of the fourth season of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" to see if there will be any official statement about it.

General synopsis of Kimetsu no Yaiba

Tanjirou Kamado lives with his impoverished family on a remote mountain. As an older brother, he took on the responsibility of ensuring his family's livelihood after his father's death. On a cold winter's day, he goes down to the local village to sell charcoal. At dusk, he is forced to spend the night in the house of a curious person who warns him of the existence of strange creatures that roam the night: malevolent demons that crave human flesh.

When he finally gets home, Tanjirou's worst nightmare comes true. His entire family has been brutally massacred, with the sole exception of his sister Nezuko, who has become a carnivorous demon. Plunged into hatred and despair, Tanjirou desperately tries to stop Nezuko from attacking others, setting out on a journey to avenge his family and find a way to make his beloved sister human again.
